Running Single Benchmark, i.e. INT, FP or Stream

Hi,

Is it possible with any of the versions to run just a single benchmark and not the entire suite? I'm interested in running just the FP, INT, memory and stream benchmarks separately to profile my system. I don't want them all run at the same time, as that would pollute my information.

If there was a commandline option similar to running 32 or 64 that allowed one to run just one of the benchmarks, that would be useful. If it works for Android, even better, as I installed that on my tablet and it was pretty sparse in options.

Obviously, if the source code was available this would be easy to do, but I didn't see any licensing option including the Pro that had this feature. That's another feature you might want to consider for an ultra pro licensing option for companies.

Thanks,

   Matt -

   Thank you for your message.

   You can run a single benchmark from the command line using the --workload switch. For example, the following command will run just the Blowfish benchmark:

   geekbench --workload 101
   

   Here are the codes for each workload:

   101 - Blowfish
   102 - Text Compress
   103 - Text Decompress
   104 - Image Compress
   105 - Image Decompress
   107 - Lua
   201 - Mandelbrot
   202 - Dot Product
   203 - LU Decomposition
   204 - Primality Test
   205 - Sharpen Image
   206 - Blur Image
   302 - Read Sequential
   304 - Write Sequential
   306 - Stdlib Allocate
   307 - Stdlib Write
   308 - Stdlib Copy
   401 - Stream Copy
   402 - Stream Scale
   403 - Stream Add
   404 - Stream Triad
   

   We have a command-line version of Geekbench for Android that we make available to our Pro licensees. You can get in touch with me at john at primatelabs.com for more information.

   We also have a source license program where we make the Geekbench 2 source code available to companies and organizations who are interested in modifying Geekbench for their internal testing needs. I can provide you with a quote if you're interested in that option as well.

   Let me know if you have any other questions and I'd be happy to help out.

   Best,
   John
